Your 401k Survival Guide

"A must-read! It's the only book on retirement planning that tackles one of the biggest challenges facing workers today: too much debt."

Portland, OR (PRWEB) December 27, 2004 -- Independent Fiduciary Matthew D. Hutcheson, and Rick Meigs, President of 401khelpcenter.com LLC, have just released Your 401k Survival Guide." Their book has been highly anticipated for many months and is finally available for the everyday worker.

Affordably priced and jam packed with answers to the questions people most frequently ask, workers will find the 401k Survival Guide" an indispensable, useful and time saving tool.

I deal daily with 401(k) plan participants who really want to do the best job they can in saving for retirement and managing their 401(k) savings plan, but there are few good, practical tools to help them," noted Rick Meigs. Ive read every book available that purports to help the American worker in this endeavor. Few do. They just rehash the same old advice which has proven to be ineffective. Thats why we wrote this book."

We felt that Americas workforce needed a book that was easy to read and understand, one that clearly explained concepts and principles that employees have historically found difficult to grasp," said Matthew D. Hutcheson. We believe the ‘401k Survival Guide does just that. It finally gives employees the insight they need – in everyday examples and language."

The 401k Survival Guide" is not intended to be an exhaustive work, but rather a guide that is informative, enlightening and fun to read. It carefully avoids the boring dialogs that few workers understand or care about, instead it takes a new and refreshing angle.
